The Y2K bug didn't fizzle in the sense you think it did. It was put to rest because a lot of companies spent a lot of money fixing their systems. Fear and the bottom line more or less guaranteed the worst would not happen.
The 20 odd is putting it a bit too quickly. To satisfy them they'd have to throw overboard the more moderate Republicans and the bill would still have gone down.
And Trump isn't a businessman in the yuge sense of the word. He was not the CEO of a corporation, he was CEO (still is) of a Ma and Pa Kettle operation beholden to no one except the rubes who loaned him money, which appears to include some shady Russian characters who are the muscle behind Putin.
Different dimple patterns give the balls different aerodynamic properties, as do different construction materials and techniques. There is nothing simple about a golf ball.
While I agree with much of what you wrote, I think there is a future problem caused by the why the coalitions are formed now. Daesh represents a common enemy, so it is easier to strike up a coalition to defend against it. However, once that common enemy goes away, Iraq and Syria will be left with several heavily armed groups which now have battlefield experience and no record of having worked in harmony among themselves previously except to defeat Daesh.
In such an environment, one would hope for central governments to provide for a common future, except that there is too much blood on Assad's hands and he's too Alawite to play well with the other groups in Syria, and Iraq's government is more or less Iran's poodle. The outside countries are willing to fight to the last Syrian and Iraqi, and they will not suddenly stop supporting their proxies.
The only avenue I see for those two countries are representative democracies with a separation of religion and state, but the tribal and the Islamic parasites running the mosques will never allow it, they have too much to lose...and it is so much fun telling everyone else how to live, without that, the parasites themselves see no reason to live.
Yes, but moving out of the U.S. means no recourse to the U.S. legal system except as a foreign entity. And Amazon will lose their low transportation costs if their "fulfillment centers" are not in the U.S.
You mean it seems specific enough NOW. Just wait a year, it will become a new directive by el Presidente Tweetie claiming Extreme Social Awareness is necessary to protect Americans. 94 Americans have been killed since 9/11 by terrorists in the U.S. Roughly 33,000 deaths each year are attributed to Americans killing Americans with guns. Clearly the threat to Americans is other Americans.
Nah, I don't think the Republicans will show up, they don't believe in Science.
G-d visits Mitch McConnell in the Garden of Eden
G-d: Mitch, how come my apple is still on the Tree of Knowledge? Mitch: No Republican wants to be like Einstein, we heard he’s not like us. G-d: What? Jewish? Mitch: No, a scientist.
Intel, seeing their profits go bye-bye in an IoT world, decides that if they cannot produce small processors for IoT, better tether IoT to Intel processors at the mothership. Gee, Intel, and you came up with this hair brained scheme all on your own?
How come Trump isn't riding to the rescue of these workers and setting the company on the righteous path of ensuring their employment at AT&T? Surely this should qualify for his alleged deal making skills. He's been telling us about them for years. He's also been telling us how smart he is, and this is a no-brainer kind of deal he could make.
The issues with the F-35 were caused by the Pentagon. They decided to cram it full of everything they could think of. The Marines just had to have a plane that went up and down instead of being satisfied with one that goes forward. And if they really need a ground attack plane, they should take control of the Air Force's A-10 and restart the production lines for it.
They won't make nukes obsolete. And the reason we don't have really big wars is that no big country sees much to gain after the last big one. Russian was decimated and then lost the cold war. China was a basket case until Mao went round the bend. Japan was defanged. The U.S. never really cared much for imperial conquest after country solidified following the Civil War (and no it wasn't the fucking War Between the States).
The next nasty war will either (1) start with Pakistan losing control of the nukes and doing something stupid against India. India will retaliate but get a blast of radiation back in the face due to the wind direction, or (2) the little fucker in N. Korea doing a first strike against U.S. bases and allies in Asia.
I wonder how long Trump can continue to blame Obama. I suppose the right wingnuts will never lose their fear of Obama. For a crowd that claims to be about he-boy More Power, the right wingnuts act like a bunch of "girly-men" at the slightest threat.
Trump doesn't feel the need to prove his wiretapping claims. He's already trotted out his alibi, it was those naughty people at Fox, shame on them for reporting something that would be picked up and amplified by Trump and his poodles.
Actually, Trump doesn't feel the need to prove anything. His entire life is a lie, it's all he knows. By now, his staff is realizing he's been lying to them as well, it is who he is.
Yep, let's keep America safe....like selling guns to everyone and anyone. They killed roughly 33,000 Americans per year. Now them thar terrorists, you must be a real loser to get killed by one of them terrorists. Stand yer ground, kill that neighborhood teenager who trespasses on your sacred ground.
Nah, by now the foreign countries realize that Trump is a one shtick pony. He has no nuance, no behind the scenes strategy and very little above the scenes. He's got the attention span of a gnat so there can be no behind the scenes strategy. In that environment, bugging his communications is pointless. He'll just respond immediately to crises or issues that develop. And his responses will have little to do with what he's said in the past and are likely to contradict any previous decisions.
Oh, and to get on his good side, just butter him up, he's too dim to realize when he's being played.
The scale of new bridges, road, buildings, power systems, etc. are dwarfed by computer science applications (those that do not involve new bridges, etc.) To expect the same level of standards is silly. That said, I wouldn't mind better legal ramifications for building something flawed.
That's not the real problem, the real problem is that moronic companies like IBM think science and technology is all there is to education. Yes, let's produce a crop of unidimensional idiots who cannot tell their ass from a hole in the ground, but can measure both.

Only if Russia wants to see a mass exodus of its young talent to the EU.

Yes, and that's Bannon's and Trump's idea. If there are no commercial flights, then there are less illegal aliens in the U.S. They win.
Yeah, I know it is stupid, but then consider who's promulgating the restrictions.
Bannon doesn't know of any more countries than 8.

Wow!! And you say you've told us this before? I'm impressed.
Trump doesn't feel the need to prove his wiretapping claims. He's already trotted out his alibi, it was those naughty people at Fox, shame on them for reporting something that would be picked up and amplified by Trump and his poodles.

Unless you are in your dotage and your health monitor phoning home regularly is your lifeline to continued existence.
The scale of new bridges, road, buildings, power systems, etc. are dwarfed by computer science applications (those that do not involve new bridges, etc.) To expect the same level of standards is silly. That said, I wouldn't mind better legal ramifications for building something flawed.
Car and truck regulations, plane regulations, food and drug regulations, OHSA regulations, financial regulations, etc.
Without them, you'd be dead.
That's not the real problem, the real problem is that moronic companies like IBM think science and technology is all there is to education. Yes, let's produce a crop of unidimensional idiots who cannot tell their ass from a hole in the ground, but can measure both.
' able to develop their own complex excel macros' There's his problem right there.
